If these records are complete the things that jump out at me are;

1) First coolant change @ 189k -4 years
2) OEM Clutch spring replaced w/Barnett @ 26k
3) Barnett spring replaced just 18k later @ 44k? Hmmmmm
4) 24K first air filter changed (I guess I will keep my new one I just got for another 10K)
5) 60K first rear pads!!
6) 101K First front pads
7) 137K First battery!!
8) 150k First "real" mechanical repair(Stator)....amazing!
9) It appears it is mostly stock...no air kit, fuel proc, or aftermarket pipes.
10) It is a 2003 ruby/champaign...so not only do I have the fastest year + color, but I have the most reliable as well! (knocking on wood)

He installed V&H baggers at 2342 miles almost new

Oh crap...you are right Jim. Oh well....I guess I will just have to buy some V+H's someday ;)

Cycle Cat....aren't we the lucky ones! Maybe we should start our own website for the best/fastest/ and most reliable Nomads

. Don't really care about the fastest but the most reliable is great.
